Paper Plate Scarecrow – Awesome Kid Craft Idea For Fall

Hi friends! I’m so glad you landed on today’s Paper Plate Scarecrow craft tutorial!

I sure hope you all have been enjoying all the fall and Thanksgiving kid crafts I’ve been sharing on the Glued To My Crafts blog the past few days. We have been busy crafting around here and I have a TON more tutorials to share with you all in the coming days. Several of which have a turkey theme to them {so stay tuned!}

But first – I want to focus on today’s kid friendly craft titled the lovely Paper Plate Scarecrow.

Although scarecrows were originally intended to scare away creatures in the fields – this cute guy isn’t scaring ANYONE today. He’s super easy to pull together, adorable and guess what? It in-cooperates those little handprints too!

Ready to learn how to make your own paper scarecrow friend? Let’s grab our craft supplies, find the full tutorial below and get to work on building him today!

Happy crafting, my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your creations on our Facebook community wall! #gluedtomycrafts
